Bug Description

In the on-boarding process, after clicking through the terms and conditions you are brought to a page called "Your account details."

On first load of the page, you're greeted with a large warning and error, "Unique short namespace required before any new submission." and "Please correct the fields indicated below to update your account information", respectively.

You haven't entered anything yet, so this is both confusing and off-putting. You don't know what a 'unique short namespace' is until much further down the page.

Please move the short namespace warning down to where namespaces are explained. Please also do not show errors until the user has taken some action which triggers one.
